Thread glorious Thread

 
In my art thread is not just a tool. It is my inspiration.
I love the color, texture, sheen, and incredible variety of thread available to me as a fiber artist.
I go into the fabric shop and lust after more colors of thread. I await with impatience for the coupon or sale that will let me buy more thread.
 
I really do use all this wonderful thread in my art. really!
 
I have to get just the right color, and a lighter shade,
and a darker shade for shadows. I need the right kind of thread cotton for a matte finish, polyester for top stitching, silk threads for silk applique then there's the bobbin... you get the picture.
 
Well, no, really I do use the thread!
